To experience how residents’ life style was, we took part in the “1213 come & play at Losheng” activity, held by the volunteer parents of Losheng. It was the same day of the opening day at Losheng Sanatorium, therefore, it’s especially meaningful.

Before entering the session, the host will elaborate the rules. Each kid will be given a direction map and collect card. If you pass one session, you got one point.
Activity I
